of_o all_o thing_n whereupon_o aristotle_n in_o the_o 7._o book_n of_o his_o moral_n to_o eudemon_n say_v nature_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v always_o or_o for_o the_o most_o

though_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v usual_o or_o common_o donn_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n church_n here_o upon_o earth_n be_v supernatural_a and_o miraculous_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o

when_o they_o be_v donn_v in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n by_o priest_n who_o be_v institute_v by_o god_n for_o that_o purpose_n because_o they_o be_v common_o and_o usual_o do_v by_o they_o so_o

whereupon_o s._n paul_n say_v faith_n must_v not_o be_v in_o the_o wisdom_n of_o man_n but_o in_o the_o power_n of_o god_n 1._o cor._n 2._o 5._o wherefore_o see_v that_o all_o the_o work_n of_o god_n
